Digi-COM - Computers, Hardware, and Software! [21/21] [Written]

But heed this warning! WARNING. desires are never fulfilled. Nor quenched! you will fail. Fail! FAIL. Fail. fail. like the rest of them. Like the rest of them! like the rest of them.

 

Welcome to Digi-COM, the first unique archetype I've designed in years. This theme came out as one of the larger ones I've designed, as it required a number of cards in order to fully flesh out the concept that I had in mind for how this theme would function, but in a gameplay perspective this would also make it a theme where you are running a greater number of different cards at 1 or 2 apiece.

Digi-COM is a DARK Machine Xyz theme, centered around rank 5 and 11. The theme is comprised of several components with their own sub-archetype name: Digi-COM, the "motherboard" cards, Digi-DRIVE, which are the components, Digi-WARE, which are the programs that are run, and Digi-FRAME, which are the final Xyz monsters that you compose. Gameplay is centered around using a Digi-COM card, typically with Digi-DRIVE monsters equipped to it, in order to perform an Xyz Summon of a Digi-FRAME (this Xyz Summon using the equipped cards as well). Your base Digi-FRAME monster, Peerless Cavalry, has no active effects of his own and, if summoned from the grave with no materials, could not do anything but simply be killed. However, through the COM, DRIVE, and WARE cards, when attached as materials, grant these Xyz monsters a wide variety of different bonuses and effects that can create some dangerous monsters. Your end game? Muster the sheer computing power necessary to create the Evolutionary Alkahest and begin analyzing, de-compiling, and destroying your opponent's deck from the inside out.

The only real programs/systems/hardware I actually reference are the motherboard formfactor acronyms I base the Digi-COM names off of. I cheated a little with the Xyz one considering how new that form factor is— the rest are from the 80’s/90’s.
